## Overview

This repository contains a single Homebrew cask definition for the `ant` CLI, not the CLI implementation. Homebrew uses the cask metadata to select a platform-specific release archive and install the binary, man page, and shell completions. The excerpt documents these package relationships; it does not show the CLI’s internal behavior or the mechanics by which users invoke Homebrew.

Main entry points: [`Casks/ant.rb`](https://github.com/anthropics/homebrew-tap/blob/main/Casks/ant.rb) (Ant cask)
